I have no permission to access BC window so just say it here, I uploaded the new file, should be the same link.

Hi Vivienne,

I did spot PL and there are a couple of issues I'd like to bring up.

1) For #25 above, I hear 似乎了打噴嚏 (or something similar) instead of 似乎要打噴嚏. The difference in meaning seems minor, so you're welcome to leave it as is.

2) The average volume is 81.6 dB, which is outside of our 86-92 dB target range. Normally, one would use the Amplify effect in Audacity to fix that, but your reading has a wide dynamic range, and amplifying the track would lead to some clipped, distorted sounds. What we need here is some compression. If you use Audacity, please use the Compressor effect, decreasing the Threshold to -20 dB and checking the box "Compress based on peaks", with defaults for the other settings. This gives more even dynamics with the average volume right in the middle of the target range.

Thanks,
Michael

Hi Michael, I tried to ajust my file with compression. Hope now it is ok. I re-uploaded it. Same link (so the "listen" on the 1st page should work). Thanks!

Thanks for the fix, Vivienne! The volume is now perfect. However, I'm afraid there's one other technical issue I have to ask you to fix. I didn't see it before because I was only doing spot PL, but now I happened to notice it. There are 18 seconds of silence at the end of the recording. Could you shorten it to the standard 5 seconds?

The MW link worked as you said, but in collaborative projects we ask readers to post the upload URL and duration for every upload in the project thread, as an extra bookkeeping safeguard.

Thanks!
Michael

Welcome. It's great to have another contribution in Ukrainian and well done finding a public domain source for this work! Our proof-listener, Sonia, will check your recording.

Since this looks like the first time you'll be assigned a section, let us know under what name (real or nickname) you would like to be credited in the catalog. We can also include a link to your personal website or blog, if you have one.

The keywords can be anything that would help a listener find this recording using a search engine: genre, period, themes of the work, etc.

Sonia, the author needs to be added to the catalog.

Ukraine, Poland, allegory, вірш, Україна, Польща, алегорія

I'm happy to join you all at last =)
Tan.

P.S. Is it necessary to write in English, Ukrainian and add transliteration to description or maybe one language is enough? Which one?

[Kazbek]

Add me as T.Honcharyk, please.

Ok, you should see the name change appear on your reader page within a day or two:

Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by description. Row 14 in the Magic Window now contains all the information we need.

I meant that I wrote everything about the poem (author, title, keywords etc. ) in English, Ukrainian and transliteration, maybe that is too much and you don't need it. (And that means that I can be more lazy =))))))

Hi Tan,

Yes, you don't have to include a translation of the title. We use only the original and (for non-Latin-based alphabets) its transliteration. If the author isn't yet in the catalog, we create entries for their name in native and transliterated forms and include a Wikipedia link.
